Creating Hook

    Hi there.

    I apologize if this is a ridiculous question, but being that I am a very novice dev, especially with WP, I’m not sure what to do with “hooks”.

    I have added the hook info into the functions.php of the theme, commenting out the IPN values I don’t care about.

    I have changed the top of the code to the following:

    add_action(‘pbs_ipn_setup’, ‘pbs_ipn’, 10, 1);
    function pbs_ipn($posted) {

    Is this correct, and if so, how do I invoke it to get the values?

    Thanks in advance

    That is excellent. Apparently I have been accessing DBs in WP the hard way. I may have to redo a few things. Otherwise, I got it to work. I thoroughly appreciate your help. Thanks so much!!!

    One last thing, and I know it’s not directly related to your plugin, but I’m curious if you happen to know if and how to access $_SESSION variables from within an action.

    Thanks for any help

    As long as the session is current and loaded with values then the session vars should be available within your hook function code any time it’s triggered.
